It's no secret I'm a shy person.
My first serious project was photographing badgers - very, very difficult as they are shy and nocturnal.
If Cole and I are together, we're noticeable. Fan encounters come with the job, and you can't shy away from them.
I'm not shy, but I have a job to do. I don't need the notoriety.
Stage-persona notwithstanding, I'm extremely shy and quiet. Almost painfully shy. People misinterpret that as being above it all or not interested.
I think I'm actually much too shy to do any performance art. I admire the big swings those guys take, but I'm not a one-man band.
I am not shy. I am for an open society. I am for a progressive world. I do not propose to reform France; I propose to transform it at its deepest level.
As a child, I was afraid of everything. My parents were shy, the kind of people for whom it is an ordeal to go and buy some bread or whatever.
I'm not shy. I'm modest, but I'm very outgoing.
I'm very shy so I became very outgoing to protect my shyness.

I was a shy kid but also very mischievous. Because I looked super innocent, no one could really call me out on my pranks.

I'm less shy now than I was as a kid. After Flight 1549, my family and I had to become public figures and more complete versions of ourselves. I had to teach myself to become an effective public speaker.
I'm not shy or reclusive. I just spend my time with people rather than journalists.
The British have been particularly shy about the issues of financial regulation, and attentive only to the interests of the City - hence their reluctance to see the introduction of a tax on financial transactions and tax harmonisation in Europe.
I want to resume the life of a shy person.
